Chapter 529 The whole country entrusts retreat to advance(1/2)
Liu Xie was stunned in place. Liu Qing had already walked out of the palace. These words were simply heart-breaking words.
It sounds unacceptable and angry, but in fact, this is indeed the status quo. Liu Xie, the emperor, is in name only.
Chen Xi lay spread on the ground, not daring to say anything as he had not yet withdrawn from the panic.
After a long time, Liu Xie asked: "Chen Xi, King of Bohai, what do you mean by saying this? Will he really refuse if I offer him the throne?"
Chen Xi came to his senses and replied quickly: "Your Majesty, the King of Bohai must also be afraid of this, fearing that he will be charged with treason."
"He would also be afraid?" Liu Xie obviously didn't believe it.
And Chen Xi seemed to be unable to give him any ideas. After much deliberation, Liu Xie ordered someone to invite his teacher Ma Rixi back again.
Not long after, Ma Rixi returned to the palace.
Liu Xie said directly: "The King of Bohai came just now and sent Han Sui's head. Now Liangzhou has been leveled, and the Han Dynasty is settled!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!" Ma Rixi congratulated continuously.
So the thoughtful officials began to consider whether Liu Qing forced Liu Xie to grant this title to the King of Ji'an?
"Your Majesty, the King of Bohai has reached the peak of his position as a powerful official. Now he can enlarge his fiefdom, for example, the King of Jizhou."
A group of staff with an intelligence of 90+ looked at each other, and were actually stumped by the actions of a young man.
Liu Qing listened to these profound words, and these words carried too much. As he said himself, if something happened during the patrol, and Liu Xie was young and had no heirs, then the throne...
"Uncle Huang, what do you think?" Liu Xie asked.
After thinking about it, Liu Qing called Dian Wei.
Or: What if something happens to me...
Liu Qing waved his hand and Zhang He retreated.
Guo Jia smiled and said: "My lord, it seems that your Majesty is full of sincerity."
When Liu Qing said this and agreed so simply, the suspicion became even more serious.
"The emperor's uncle has a saying that is true and clear. Since I am the emperor, I should go and see my people and my country."
"With the whole country relying on each other, we have retreated to the limit. How can we still make progress?" Xun Yu said.
Only if a person is ruthless enough and has a stable position can he achieve great things.
Liu Xie signaled to Chen Xi, who stepped forward and handed an edict and a seal box to Liu Qing.
"Your Majesty!" Ma Rixi couldn't bear it anymore, holding back the sadness in his eyes. He didn't know how to persuade him, so he could only call out loudly to let Liu Xie hear his voice.
"Dian Wei, you pick two hundred elite Tiger Guards and follow them secretly to prevent any unexpected events!" Liu Qing ordered.
Ma Rixi was about to say something, but felt that his words were weak and useless, so he chose to remain silent.
When Ma Rixi heard this, he was relieved. This was a sign of Liu Xie's maturity. Unfortunately, the current situation in the DPRK and China absolutely did not allow Liu Xie to leave.
When all the officials heard this, they were all shocked. Even if a fiefdom was to be added, it would only be a county or a county. How could an entire state be added? Jizhou has hundreds of counties and millions of people. How could it be possible...
"I've been waiting for you!"
Liu Xie's move is like a white wolf with nothing!
However, what Ma Rixi said is indeed a feasible way. Liu Xie stopped asking and was troubled by this matter. He turned to Ma Rixi and said: "My dear, I have an idea today."
Liu Qing remained calm and called directly: "Where is Zhang He?"
"I often have the urge to go on patrol incognito. I want to see my country and my people." Liu Xiedao.
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials in the court were in an uproar, and their hearts were filled with turmoil, but no one dared to say a word, not even to breathe heavily.
Liu Qing felt cold in his heart. Could this be a test that Liu Xie risked himself to test?
As expected, young people are the most difficult to control. Liu Qing had no idea what Liu Xie wanted to do.
Liu Xie just glanced at Ma Rixi, smiled slightly, and then turned to Liu Qing.
Liu Qing replied: "Your Majesty, I have no objection!"
What a sin!
"Then I, the king, will definitely defeat this natural disaster and give an explanation to the people!"
If Liu Qing really wanted this position, he could have returned to Luoyang, deposed him directly, and simply took that position himself. In history, there were indeed many emperors who did this, including one who was one of the emperors throughout the ages.
As long as it is in that position, even if there is no jade seal, the exit is an edict.
"Although I donated to the national treasury and cut down royal expenses, I feel that it is far from enough! Xun Yu!"
Compared with those situations, the biggest difference between Liu Qing is that he has actually grasped the real power. Change or unchanged is just a title. Liu Qing does not need to worry, so that this title can be more justified.
Things will fall into place a bit.
Liu Xie choked back the words of his ministers.
"Your Majesty, please make it clear."
"Do you know that this jade seal has been lost a long time ago? He gave this empty box to me, maybe because he wanted to catch my jade seal..." The words stopped abruptly, because at the same time as Liu Qing spoke, he opened the seal box, and there was a square of gold in it.
Yin, lie quietly.
There has never been a strong country that was created by adding taxes, and there will never be a prosperous age that was created by adding taxes.
But his actions today, although unexpected, seemed like he was already a mature person. It seemed that Liu Xie had grown a lot overnight.
"In my opinion, King Bohai has made another great contribution. What reward should he give?"
A big slap in the face scene.
"I have been thinking about it a lot recently. In the past five years, the Han Dynasty has been plagued by internal and external troubles and turmoil. In these five years, I have been huddled in Luoyang, and I have not even cast my gaze once. Under the endless battles of King Ji'an,
Only yesterday I was able to kill Han Sui and restore the world. This is the honor of King Ji'an, and it is also my fault." Liu Xie said leisurely.
Liu Xie smiled and said: "Since I came to the throne, I have been staying in the deep palace. Previously, it was because of internal and external troubles, which was really inappropriate. Now there is a prime minister in the court who presides over the government, and outside there is an emperor who is powerful.
, it’s the best time for me to go on patrol incognito..."
"Your Majesty, in disguise, can naturally do some good deeds for the people and gain some reputation as a wise king. This is better than being trapped in the palace, unable to do anything." Jia Xu said, and nodded at the mountain of disasters on the table.
The document said, "The Lord is at the forefront of the storm, and the success or failure of the fight against drought is particularly critical."
This trick was made for him when I was educating him!
At first, Liu Qing scolded him for not knowing the sufferings of the people, and asked him to go see more of his people, what they were eating, and how they were living. Unexpectedly, Bloodshed actually agreed.
Liu Xie sneered, "King of Jizhou? Does it make sense? It won't be long before the whole world belongs to him."
Liu Xie paused and then said: "Now a severe drought has swept across all states, and the people are once again in dire straits. Every time I think about it, my heart aches, so I have an idea. I want to see my people.
The country!"
Zhang He raised his hand and said, "If anything goes wrong, Zhang He will raise his head to see the general!"
"No!" Liu Qing immediately objected. The so-called solution once and for all was to make Liu Xie disappear.
"Should I be happy? King Bohai has dealt with the chaos in the four seas, and now he is coming to attack me."
This golden seal cannot be said to be a fake, it can only be said to be a substitute. It also comes from the royal family. In fact, no one cares about the authenticity of the jade seal. What everyone cares about is His Majesty's words.
"I order you to lead one hundred Yulin Lang and one thousand imperial troops to protect His Majesty. If you are in danger, you can ask the local army for help at any time. I want to ensure that Your Majesty's trip is foolproof!"
"In the court, His Majesty said it himself. He could think of it himself, but he still did it because he must be relying on something. Although this move is a dangerous move, if I take the risk desperately, it will definitely be a lose-lose situation.
Liu Xie continued: "The emperor's uncle's achievements are unparalleled and he has made another contribution to the Han Dynasty. Although the king's title has reached its limit, I have always been rewarded and punished. In the troubled times, King Bohai managed Jizhou in an orderly manner. It is commendable and I also have the fate.
Coincidentally, after staying there for a while, today, I will grant Jizhou to the emperor's uncle and prepare an edict——"
Liu Xie handed him an empty seal box. When Liu Qing returns it, he will return the empty box. Of course, it will not work. At that time, he may have no choice but to put the imperial seal back into it.
Has he changed his gender?
The answer is obviously no.
"Start reducing taxes immediately!"
"Uncle Emperor, I leave this heavy burden to you!"
"Your Majesty, think twice!" Chen Xi also quickly advised: "The country cannot be left without a master for a day. If Your Majesty leaves, what will happen to the palace?"
The next day, the morning meeting was held as scheduled, but Liu Xie slept very poorly that night, thinking about something all the time.
Liu Qing listened and felt that Liu Xie's remarks today were a bit unusual.
"Your Majesty, your uncle is interested. Now that the general is here, I can rest easy. From today on, all matters in the court will be handled by Prime Minister Xun Yu. If you have something to report, please go to him. Do you know?"
Liu Qing returned to the palace and asked everyone: "Tell me, your Majesty, what do you mean?"
Ah this...
Liu Xie didn't answer. For some reason, since King Bohai returned to Luoyang, he felt that Chen Xi was a bit disgusting. Maybe it was because, before Liu Qing came back, Chen Xi always played with him and he was very good at teasing Liu Xie.
Happy, but now, the King of Bohai returns, Liu Xie hits the wall at every turn, his head is bruised and bleeding, but Chen Xi has nothing to do.
Jia Xu said: "Your Majesty's move is more like retreating in order to advance."
"I'm here!" Xun Yu responded.
To be continued...
